Name a Bench

A student working with wiring
Benches located at the back of campus in an area that can serve as an outdoor classroom with a video monitor.

Leave your mark on Drake State’s campus by securing naming rights to one of ten benches that make up our outdoor classroom.

For a gift of $2,500, your name or the name of a loved one will be permanently displayed on a bench where students gather to study, connect, and grow. The outdoor classroom is a living hub of campus life, a place where learning extends beyond four walls, and students find community between classes, during group work or just hanging out. 

Your named bench becomes a lasting part of that experience, a meaningful presence in the daily lives of students each year. A bench is a legacy of support that endures long after your gift is made, supporting an environment where students feel welcomed, inspired, and at home.

Ten benches are available. Secure yours and become a part of the story.
